Chapter 307

"Didn't expect it to be hidden so deeply..."

Sima Di also smiled and shook his head, because the location of the "secret chamber" was precisely...

"This red Road Poneglyph records in the original history exactly how to find Laugh Tale... the key to the lost hundred years of history was also placed on that Final Island." Robin suddenly spoke.

"In that case... I'll take you to see something good."

Sima Di walked to the side of the red Road Poneglyph, telekinesis carrying him floating to the top third position; his palm felt around on the stone stele a few times, sensing a slightly protruding grain on the touch.

If not for Sima Di's spiritual power scan, which could analyze the entire red Road Poneglyph and work backwards to find this mechanism,

ordinary people truly would not discover it.

After all...

even the Road Poneglyph's surface is not absolutely smooth and flat, but has a grainy, frosted texture.

Press this grain!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"

the sound of heavy stone blocks grinding came,

the red Road Poneglyph before his eyes was actually "opening" bit by bit, revealing a sealed space protected in the middle.

The inner walls of the space were inscribed with more ancient text, and grooves embedded three bottles of green potion.

35. Beast-Eared Girl Robin? New Ruins Discovery!

【Ding! Congratulations on signing in at the famous scene "The Origin History of the Mink Tribe!", obtaining the sign-in reward "Controllable Moon Lion Form of the Mink Tribe"!】

——————————

"Controllable Moon Lion Form of the Mink Tribe": After gazing directly at the full moon, transform into the pure white "Moon Lion Form". This form awakens the hidden wildness of the Mink Tribe, with a leap-and-bound improvement in combat ability! And one can freely choose to end the transformation!;

——————————

Another transformation ability?

And it requires gazing directly at the full moon to activate...

Sima Di's expression was somewhat strange.

Isn't the Super Saiyan bloodline just about seeing the full moon and turning into a raging ape?

Isn't this "completing" his own bloodline!

"What is recorded on the walls is the original reason for the birth of the Mink Tribe." Robin translated: "Although both the Giant Potion and the Dwarf Potion can amplify lifespan, the differentiation in body size made some people in the Giant Kingdom unable to accept it."

"So the Giant Kingdom launched this 957 new research; although it eliminated the enlargement and shrinking of body size, it would turn into a specified beast-man form, namely the Mink Tribe."

"But because gazing directly at the full moon would trigger a maddening Moon Lion Form, the project was suspended."

"These are the only three remaining samples; they can turn people into the Mink Tribe, granting boosts to strength and lifespan."

Tsk!

The Mink Tribe were also an accidental product of the Giant Kingdom's lifespan potion research?

Could it be...

those Long-Arm Tribe, Long-Leg Tribe, Three-Eye Tribe and so on in this world are all by-products of some lifespan potion?

"It's strange; up to now, the Giant Kingdom ruins we've seen are all more or less related to lifespan potions." Sima Di asked in confusion.

Could it be...

the reason the Giant Kingdom came to this planet was to research lifespan potions?

Is the entire world their experimental base?

Hiss—

If that's the case, how powerful a civilization must the Giant Kingdom's home planet be?

The more he learned, the more curious Sima Di became about the Giant Kingdom.

"Should we take these three bottles of Mink Tribe potion?" Robin asked.

Sima Di waved his hand, used telekinesis to scoop out the three bottles of Mink Tribe potion, and looked at Robin with a grin.

"Yo, Robin-chan, do you want to become a Mink Tribe member? Your soul beast must be a fox."

"Oh? Di-chan wants to turn me into a Mink Tribe member? That's not impossible." Robin threw the question back at Sima Di.

Sima Di indicated...

although beast-eared girls were very appealing, smooth skin felt more comfortable to touch.

One touch and a hand full of fur?

Sima Di was afraid of pricking his little Sima Di!

Putting the three bottles of Mink Tribe potion into the Golden Treasury, Sima Di shook his head at Robin.

"Robin-chan is so beautiful and charming now; how could I bear to let you become a Mink Tribe member?"

Robin smiled and looked at Sima Di, moved closer, pushed him against the red Road Poneglyph, leaned over Sima Di's ear and said—

"I haven't tried it in front of a Road Poneglyph yet; Di-chan, do you want to consider..."

How could Sima Di bear to refuse his own woman's request?

"Hiss—"

"Thrilling!"

Sunset, setting sun.

Sima Di, with Robin who had changed into a different outfit, returned to the landing spot of the Going Merry.

Duke Inuarashi was confronting the Straw Hat Pirates and Baron Tamago and others, leading Pedro and other Mink Tribe members; the figure of the giant Pekoms was particularly conspicuous.

Seeing Sima Di return,

Duke Inuarashi said without courtesy, "Outsiders! Since you've already seen the original Red Road Poneglyph, please leave!"

"That's really not very polite — I did help heal your wounds, you know." Sima Di picked at his ear.

He showed not the slightest intention of leaving directly.

This made Duke Inuarashi's gaze turn cold; he glanced at the setting sun on the horizon, and beside it a waning moon.

If he remembered correctly...

Today seemed to be the full moon, didn't it?

His gaze grew several degrees colder as he stared straight at Sima Di.

"You've already gotten your hands on the original Red Road Poneglyph — is there anything else keeping you in Zou?"

Sima Di smiled without speaking and looked toward Baron Tamago.

"As a betrothal gift for Sanji, the Giant's Elixir and the original Red Road Poneglyph still seem a bit lacking... If we add the fighting strength of the Mink Tribe on top, I believe BIG MOM will surely be very pleased, won't she?"

Baron Tamago was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then gazed at Sima Di with shining eyes.

"If it really can help with what you said... Mama will surely be so happy that she'd agree to any condition of yours! Even taking another daughter as wife wouldn't be out of the question!"

"Although that sounds quite nice, I already have quite a few women..."

Sima Di looked toward Duke Inuarashi with a faint smile.

"You heard it too — there are now two paths before the Mink Tribe."

"Either, as rent for living on Zunisha all these years, you serve loyally for ten years, after which I can grant you the right to live freely on Zunisha for generations."

"Or else..."

"Today is the day to let Zunisha clear off the trash on its back!"

Boom Boom Boom!

Power-stone votes are 63 short — extra chapter incoming!

36. Mink Tribe Elixir! A Gift for BIG MOM?

"Or else..."

"Today is the day to let Zunisha clear off the trash on its back!"

Accompanying Sima Di's threat,

Zunisha cooperated by drawing up a full trunk of seawater, spraying it into the sky where it became a downpour of rain — yet it was timed just right to drench only the Mink Tribe, without spilling over to the Straw Hat Pirates' side.

Zunisha alone, that colossal beast, told Duke Inuarashi that the Mink Tribe could never possibly resist.
